Today was one of those simple moments that mean the most ☕💛
Sitting down for a chat and sharing a warm hot chocolate topped with fluffy marshmallows with the lovely residents at Alton Place Care Home. Lots of smiles, gentle laughter, and heart-warming conversations made it a truly special time. Sometimes it’s the quiet moments, a cosy drink, and good company that make the day brighter ✨

Getting into the Christmas spirit by designing some festive baubles 🎨✨
From sketch to sparkle, I love how each design tells its own little holiday story. Christmas creativity is such a lovely way to be in the spirit🎄

💙We are taking on a charity walk from Alton Place to Aldershot in February💙
Although not just any walk, we are going to be doing this in inflatable costumes! This is for the amazing charity called Mind, they support mental health, helping people to not have to face their struggles alone.
This walk isn't just about the miles- although our legs may disagree! It's about breaking the stigma around mental health, and raising vital funds for support, advice and understanding when people need it most.
Mental health affects so many of us, whether this is personally or through someone we care about, and every single step we take is for awareness, hope and support!
If you are able to share this post, donate or send some encouragement our way that would honestly mean so much. Together we can turn steps into support and make a real difference!
